UFC 75 produces 1st MMA undisputed champ
SO, did you catch UFC 75?
History was made in London as the Ultimate Fighting Championship light heavyweight champ Quinton "Rampage" Jackson squared off against Pride FC middleweight kingpin Dan "Hollywood" Henderson (despite the difference in naming conventions, both are champs in the 205-pound division). Jackson scored a unanimous decision to become the first undisputed mixed martial arts champ.
That made me really happy because I was rooting for Rampage, who has to be the funniest guy in MMA heh :)

Another guy I was rooting for, light heavyweight Houston "The Assassin" Alexander, proved he was for real by knocking out Italian Alessio Sakara in the first round. Yup, Houston showed that his first round KO win over Keith Jardine in UFC 71, which was The Assassin's UFC debut, was no fluke.
Unfortunately, Mirko Cro Cop suffered another upset loss -- his second straight defeat in the UFC -- when Cheick Kongo scored a unanimous decision. Cro Cop, what's happening to you?

Rampage will hold the belt for a long time. I wish Crocop will return to his former self. =(
The Natural = The Best!!!
Dan Henderson needs to learn more muai thai kickboxing if he wants to be the best,he is strong but he needs to work on his striking a lot more
He has now been defeated
